About Me

Hi! My name is Lillian, but most know me by Lilly. I am so thrilled that you have decided to take a look at my resume. I figure you are here to get to know a tad about me, so let me tell you! I was born in Hope, Arkansas and lived in SW arkansas until June of 2018. My mom moved us up to NWA for better opportunities, and man, was she right! I graduated from the Siloam Springs High School in May of 2022 with a completion in Career Technical Education of the Medical field, as a certified first responder, and with BLS, AED, and CPR certifications. I was a football manager throughout most of my high school career as well. At midnight on my 18th birthday, I was submitting my application to the Siloam Springs Police Department as a step to start my career as a Public Safety Communications Specialist. I absolutely love everything about the job; it's fast paced,no day is the same, and I am protecting and serving my community by being their calm voice, as well as sending them assistance in what could be their absolute worst moment. It is so rewarding in all of the right ways! However, my free time consists of activities that are quite the opposite, quiet. I love to read, be in nature, and spend time with my family. Hiking has also been a new found activity of mine now that the weather is cooling off some...but who really knows, I am living in Arkansas!
